Trick-or-treating in the United States originated from ancient Celtic, Roman, and medieval European traditions of costumed begging, like "souling" and "guising," brought to America by Irish and Scottish immigrants. It became a community-focused, family-friendly activity in the 1920s and 1930s as a way to curb vandalism and gained widespread popularity after World War II due to suburbanization and a post-war baby boom. The phrase "trick or treat" became common in the mid-20th century, and today's version is a commercial holiday far removed from its often mischievous or perilous origins.
